00:00:00Hey babe. Hey. How you doing? How was your day? Good. I handed in that audition for that role I told you about.
00:00:10Yeah? Yeah. I hope I book it. Well if you did a good job you book it. That's how it works.
00:00:15No, no. I just haven't booked anything for a while and, you know, it's been really, really difficult lately to, you know, even get a call back.
00:00:24Well, I did offer you a few roles but you didn't want them.
00:00:28Yeah, but I don't want to do those type of roles, babe. You know, like I want to do a role where I'm telling a story and, you know, I'm not just showing my body.
00:00:37It's a shame though because it's a hell of a body.
00:00:41Yeah, but I don't want to flirt or, you know, use my sexuality to get to the top. I want them to cast me because of my acting skills.
00:00:51Yeah, but that's not how showbiz works, baby. Pretty little thing like you, you know, you've got to sweet talk your way to the top.
00:00:58Those acting skills alone are not going to be enough.
00:01:01No, I'm not going to flirt my way to the top. Plus, I'm committed to you. So why can't you put me in your movies?
00:01:10Because the kind of movies that I'm producing you are not right for.
00:01:15Hmm. We've talked about this.
00:01:18I know. I just feel like there's nothing going right in my life right now.
00:01:27Anyway, I got you something.
00:01:30Yeah.
00:01:33And I'm sure it's beautiful, but do you know what I really want, Mitch?
00:01:40What?
00:01:41I don't want us to hide our relationship anymore, OK?
00:01:44You know, these directors, these producers, they might actually take me seriously if they're not with you.
00:01:49Bullshit. It would make it even worse, if anything.
00:01:52You'd have directors and producers that wouldn't even want to give you an audition because we're together.
00:01:56You don't understand how this industry works like I do.
00:02:00OK. What if I gave up acting?
00:02:03Well...
00:02:04I would give up acting for you.
00:02:07Yeah, well, it's not really the right time for that.
00:02:09I mean, the way my career is and where I'm at, I can't pursue an official relationship.
00:02:14And to be honest, I can't be seen with a struggling actress.
00:02:16A struggling actress? OK, so that's why you don't want to be with me.
00:02:20Great. Now I know.
00:02:22Look, I don't know, all right, but you know what I'm saying.
00:02:26It's just it's not the right time.
00:02:28I mean, fuck, OK, just don't test my patience, all right?
00:02:31Right, all right. I'm sorry.
00:02:33Hey, I'm sorry.
00:02:34All right.
00:02:35Hey, I won't bring it up again.
00:02:38Like I said, I got you something.
00:02:43And it's beautiful. Thank you.
00:02:49There was one more thing I wanted to talk to you about later.
00:02:54What?
00:02:55You know what? Don't worry about it, OK?
00:02:58Just don't worry.
00:03:00What is wrong with you today?
00:03:02Hey.
00:03:03What is wrong with you today?
00:03:05You're going to have to make it up to me, aren't you?
00:03:07Yeah.
00:03:08We're going to know where you go today, right?
00:03:17Can I help you?
00:03:19Sorry, I'm actually a really big fan of Al Gore.
00:03:23Seriously?
00:03:25Yeah, all this gold.
00:03:28Hi.
00:03:29Do you want to have a seat?
00:03:31Have a seat.
00:03:32I'd love to. Hi.
00:03:33Hi, I'm Alex.
00:03:34Claire, lovely to meet you.
00:03:36Nice to meet you.
00:03:38Sorry.
00:03:39It's OK.
00:03:40Sorry about that.
00:03:42So you're a fan of Gore's work?
00:03:44Yeah, I mean, I love all the classics and, you know,
00:03:48come to the library and get to chill out and just escape the world.
00:03:53Yeah, exactly.
00:03:55You know, I'm actually writing a screenplay on this book.
00:03:57Oh, you're a screenplay writer.
00:03:59I don't know.
00:04:00That's amazing.
00:04:01Yeah, I write screenplays for a living.
00:04:03Oh, very cool.
00:04:04Screenplay writer, that's it.
00:04:07Very cool.
00:04:08I actually work as an actress.
00:04:10Really?
00:04:11Yeah.
00:04:12Wow, OK.
00:04:13How's that going?
00:04:14Oh, it's good, but it's been a bit hard to book work lately.
00:04:18Tell me about it.
00:04:20Yeah, you feel me?
00:04:21Yeah, yeah, no, I'm struggling as well,
00:04:25but I have a feeling that things are going to come around, you know?
00:04:31Yeah, definitely.
00:04:33I mean, I really hope they do.
00:04:38Yeah.
00:04:39What's wrong?
00:04:42Is everything all right?
00:04:44Yeah, look, I don't mean to bring up anything negative.
00:04:47It's all good.
00:04:49You know, just work and then, you know,
00:04:52a problem with my relationship that hasn't been going very smooth lately.
00:04:57It's just, it is a lot on my mind.
00:05:00Do you want to talk about it?
00:05:03There's not much to say.
00:05:05I mean, a relationship with a man that doesn't want to be in public with me,
00:05:11our relationship has to stay secret.
00:05:14Why does it have to be secret?
00:05:16Because of who he is.
00:05:18It'll damage his reputation.
00:05:21He's a producer as well.
00:05:24Who?
00:05:26Do you know Mitch Sterling?
00:05:28You're kidding.
00:05:31Yeah.
00:05:33It's just, well, I mean, no, I've met the guy a couple of times,
00:05:38but, yeah, I can tell you I'm not friends with him in any way.
00:05:44No, and to make it worse, I'm actually pregnant.
00:05:49I'm having a little baby girl.
00:05:52Wow.
00:05:54Well, there's a silver lining there, I guess.
00:05:59Does he know about it?
00:06:01I haven't told him yet.
00:06:04I'll be honest with you, I'm actually really scared to tell him.
00:06:07Why?
00:06:09I don't know.
00:06:11I just don't think he's going to be very accepting,
00:06:13but I really hope that he's happy and as excited as I am
00:06:18because I just, you know, I really can't wait to meet her.
00:06:23That's sweet.
00:06:25Yeah, I'm sure he'll come around.
00:06:28He probably just needs time.
00:06:30Yeah, I know.
00:06:33You know what?
00:06:35I love how positive you are.
00:06:37You're beautiful, Alex.
00:06:40Not so bad yourself.
00:06:43Yeah, I really needed your company today.
00:06:45This has been lovely.
00:06:48I know we just met, but something tells me we would make really good friends.
00:06:53I think so too.
00:06:55I don't know if you're supposed to cheers coffee, but.
00:06:58Do it.
00:06:59Who cares?
00:07:00Cheers to that.
00:07:02So, I mean, you like books.
00:07:06Yeah, I love books.
00:07:08Ever since I was a little girl, I always loved to read and, you know,
00:07:11escape to this other place other than the real world.
00:07:16After you.
00:07:17Such a gentleman.
00:07:20Wow, this place is beautiful.
00:07:23How did you find it?
00:07:25This place opened up about like two years ago, and I was the first customer.
00:07:29I mean, I've been recommending it to people ever since.
00:07:31I can see.
00:07:32Everyone knows you.
00:07:34Yeah, well.
00:07:36I don't know, books make me feel at home.
00:07:40And like I said, I've been recommending it to everyone.
00:07:43I mean, they probably came in because of me.
00:07:45Probably.
00:07:47No, I know what you mean.
00:07:49I love the smell of books and the texture.
00:07:57No, I just, I wish that Mitch loved books like I do.
00:08:03Come on, just wait until you see how beautiful the old editions are, okay?
00:08:08Yeah.
00:08:09Any rereads you want to pick up?
00:08:10I'll challenge you to one.
00:08:12Okay.
00:08:14I've had Chekhov on my mind lately.
00:08:17Excellent choice, my lady.
00:08:19I'll be right back.
00:08:21Just, oh, here you go.
00:08:23Take a look at that.
00:08:27I bet you're going to have so much to talk about when we're next to each other.
00:08:32Alex, I'm sorry to bring it up again, but, you know,
00:08:37I really wish that Mitch would do this type of thing with me.
00:08:42You know, he never takes me anywhere.
00:08:44He's so adamant on our relationship being a secret.
00:08:49Well, I mean, he should at least take you to low-profile places like this.
00:08:55Have you ever asked him to?
00:08:57Like a million times.
00:08:59Never listens.
00:09:01I mean, I think most of our time together is, you know, more passionate, rushed.
00:09:08Sounds fun.
00:09:11Sorry, Alex, I have to take this, okay?
00:09:14Okay.
00:09:31Mitch, hey.
00:09:35No, no.
00:09:38No, I meant to tell you in person.
00:09:41I got really excited and you were busy on set and...
00:09:48Wait, what do you mean?
00:09:52Mitch, come on.
00:09:55Mitch, I love you.
00:10:01No, come on.
00:10:02Come on, I'm so excited.
00:10:04Why don't you come down at a really, really nice bookstore
00:10:07It would be really lovely for us to speak in person.
00:10:14Mitch, I have loved you.
00:10:16I have stuck by you.
00:10:17I have been there for you.
00:10:20Why are you saying these things?
00:10:27Come on, Mitch, come on, please.
00:10:29I know I am not going to get rid of the baby.
00:10:33No.
00:10:35I have loved you.
00:10:36For the first time that we met.
00:10:41Why are you saying these things?
00:10:51No, no, no.
00:10:53Mitch, you just need to come and see me in person, please.
00:10:56We can have a chat, okay?
00:10:58We can work things out.
00:10:59It's not going to ruin your reputation.
00:11:01This baby, this baby is going to be beautiful.
00:11:05It's going to be our baby.
00:11:10It's going to be our baby, Mitch, come on.
00:11:14No, no, no.
00:11:17Mitch, don't say that.
00:11:18Don't cut me off.
00:11:21Don't cut me off.
00:11:24Mitch!
00:11:26Mitch!
00:11:29Please, please, please, can we just have...
00:11:40Claire, are you okay?
00:11:43Hey, you okay?
00:11:46Come here.
00:11:52Just calm down, all right?
00:11:54Just take a moment, yeah?
00:11:56Just breathe, okay?
00:11:58Yeah, then...
00:12:01Okay.
00:12:03Claire, what happened?
00:12:06I don't believe it, Alex.
00:12:08What?
00:12:10He just...
00:12:12I've been with this man for years.
00:12:15I've stuck by him.
00:12:17I've loved him.
00:12:18I've been with him through everything.
00:12:21And he just...
00:12:25He just...
00:12:33Hey.
00:12:36What did he say?
00:12:39Claire, what did he say?
00:12:43He said that he wants to abort the baby.
00:12:47He wants me to get rid of it.
00:12:49And it's me.
00:12:53Or my baby.
00:12:55Jesus.
00:12:56It's me.
00:12:58Well, no, I'm sure he's just shocked.
00:13:01Okay? It's a big thing.
00:13:03I mean, he'll come around.
00:13:05I'm sorry, Alex, because...
00:13:10I don't know what to do.
00:13:13I'm a single mum.
00:13:16I don't have any...
00:13:18I barely have any acting work.
00:13:20I don't know how I'm going to do this.
00:13:22You'll figure it out.
00:13:24Yeah? You'll figure it out.
00:13:25Everything's going to be okay.
00:13:27It's going to be fine.
00:13:29I'm sorry.
00:13:30You know, I...
00:13:32I don't want to raise this baby without a father.
00:13:37I want him to be a part of this baby's life, Alex.
00:13:41I want this child to grow up with both of us.
00:13:45You can't force Mitch to have a baby with you, okay?
00:13:48You're going to have to give him time to accept this crazy situation.
00:13:53Yeah?
00:13:55I know, but I just thought that we'd have a future together.
00:13:58I know.
00:14:00I love him, Alex.
00:14:02I love him.
00:14:04I really...
00:14:06I thought that, you know, he would pick me over his job.
00:14:11Apparently not.
00:14:14Well, nothing is stopping you from raising this baby on your own, okay?
00:14:20And you know what?
00:14:22It sounds to me like you've made up your mind about who you want to have.
00:14:25Yeah?
00:14:27Nothing is all going to be okay.
00:14:30Exactly.
00:14:32You've got the fundamental thing figured out.
00:14:34Everything else...
00:14:36I don't know what I'm scared for.
00:14:38I'm really scared.
00:14:45I don't know what I'm going to do.
00:14:49You know, I thought we'd have this future together and, you know, he would...
00:14:56He said that apparently it would ruin his reputation.
00:15:00That having a baby, that he's not ready to have kids yet.
00:15:04Did he ever give you a reason for why he's saying all of this?
00:15:09Because he's a big movie director and it's going to ruin everything for him.
00:15:13He can't have kids and they're too much of a hustle.
00:15:17Okay, well...
00:15:18He said that about our baby.
00:15:22Hey.
00:15:24Just stay here.
00:15:26I'll be back.
00:15:27Just...
00:15:28Hey.
00:15:29Give me a minute, okay?
00:15:31Yeah?
00:15:32You okay?
00:15:33It was such a good fight.
00:15:35Just...
00:15:36I'll be back.
00:15:37Just give me a minute, yeah?
00:15:38Sure.
00:15:43Just...
00:15:47Hey.
00:15:52There's this really amazing bakery just around the corner.
00:15:56I was planning to take you there after this, but I guess I had to bring the bakery to you.
00:16:04I really needed this today.
00:16:06I'm really sorry, Alex.
00:16:08I know this was supposed to be a happy outing, right?
00:16:11Don't worry about it.
00:16:12It's life.
00:16:13These things happen to the best of us.
00:16:16You're very kind.
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:22This was supposed to be a fun little outing.
00:16:26No, it wasn't!
00:16:28Alex, I have had so much fun with you today.
00:16:32No, I have felt so much joy until this went down.
00:16:37No, I really haven't felt that much joy in a long time.
00:16:41Come on, I'm sure you're used to Mitch giving you all these amazing things.
00:16:46No, but I enjoy my time with Mitch and he does a lot for me, but I enjoy the simple things in life too.
00:16:55Yeah, and Mitch doesn't really understand that.
00:17:01Yeah.
00:17:03You know what?
00:17:05My birthday is actually soon and I would love if you would do my birthday tradition with me.
00:17:13A special birthday tradition, eh?
00:17:16Sounds intriguing.
00:17:18Will you come?
00:17:19I might have to.
00:17:23You're the best.
00:17:28Come in.
00:17:31Happy birthday, Chloe.
00:17:36I'm so glad you came.
00:17:37Of course I came.
00:17:38I wouldn't miss it for the world.
00:17:39It's your special day.
00:17:41Well, you know, we haven't known each other that long, so I wasn't sure.
00:17:45Look, I don't think that matters, all right?
00:17:47Some people you just click with.
00:17:50Yeah.
00:17:55Wow, this is a really nice place.
00:18:00Mitch pays for it.
00:18:02He practically pays for everything, so.
00:18:06You know, he told me that I have to keep on the down low about the pregnancy.
00:18:11I can't breathe a word to anyone and to watch out for the press, so I'm kind of stuck here.
00:18:20I'm sorry.
00:18:22We shouldn't talk about.
00:18:24You know what?
00:18:26Let's just celebrate your birthday and you can treat me to the special tradition that you have planned.
00:18:32Oh, yes.
00:18:33I'm going to blow your mind.
00:18:35Oh, okay.
00:18:36I'm excited.
00:18:37Yeah.
00:18:38So this is an old family recipe and it has a special.
00:18:45Ingredient?
00:18:46Mm-hmm.
00:18:47Okay.
00:18:48And what would that be?
00:18:50Well, if I told you, I'd have to kill you.
00:18:56Look, usually I bake this cake every year and Mitch and I usually celebrate my birthday together.
00:19:02Well.
00:19:05I just I wish that he would text or call or something, you know, it's my birthday.
00:19:10Well, that's his loss.
00:19:13All right, because this looks amazing.
00:19:22Claire, I know you said no gifts, but I couldn't resist.
00:19:27No, you shouldn't have.
00:19:29I know.
00:19:30I know.
00:19:31I know, but I wanted to.
00:19:33Okay, it's your special day and I wanted to give you something, especially with, you know, everything that's going on.
00:19:39And I just felt like I needed to cheer you up.
00:19:44Thanks.
00:19:47Wow.
00:19:48I wasn't expecting this.
00:19:51It's not much, but.
00:19:55It's beautiful.
00:19:57I love it.
00:20:01Oh, you're the best.
00:20:04Oh, okay.
00:20:06I was really hoping you'd like it.
00:20:08Alex, you know what?
00:20:09What?
00:20:10You have been such an amazing friend.
00:20:12You know, I only met you a little while ago and you have been there for me through all of this and the present.
00:20:19And you're just a beautiful friend.
00:20:23The thing is, I can't even confide in my family.
00:20:26So, you know, I'm glad I've got you.
00:20:29Like, not even your mum?
00:20:30Nothing?
00:20:31No, I'm not allowed to breathe the word of this to anyone.
00:20:35You know, Mitch says that it will ruin his reputation.
00:20:38It'll ruin our careers.
00:20:40So, I don't know, like, do you think that's true, Alex?
00:20:45I mean, yes, yes, the press sometimes leak things and expose truths that people don't like.
00:20:55But, you know, I think that people shouldn't keep secrets like that and fear them getting exposed.
00:21:01I know, but, you know, Mitch, he practically, as I said, he pays for everything.
00:21:07You know, he's got my house, my car, my clothes, my food.
00:21:12And the only thing that he asks is I keep quiet.
00:21:15So, what do I do with that?
00:21:18I'm indebted to him, Alex.
00:21:20He's been really kind to me.
00:21:22Okay, so, what, he pays your bills and expects you to stay silent?
00:21:29Yeah, Alex, that's all he asks of me.
00:21:31You know, I'm completely dependent on him.
00:21:33I don't have a stable job and he's been really kind to me.
00:21:37Okay, well, have you thought about getting a stable job?
00:21:41I've gone for a thousand auditions.
00:21:43No, no one will give me a chance.
00:21:45No, I don't want to do a role that, you know, I want a role that, you know, impresses people and means something, you know?
00:21:54Not showing my body.
00:21:56Yeah, well, that's what you deserve, alright?
00:21:58Because you're an amazing actor.
00:22:02Can I tell you something that happened the other day? It was really strange.
00:22:07Yeah, yes, you can tell me anything.
00:22:09Yeah, so, I went for an audition for a role I really wanted and I booked it.
00:22:14I was so happy.
00:22:15Did you?
00:22:16Yeah, I did, I did.
00:22:17But then something really weird happened.
00:22:21What happened?
00:22:22I, I, I got dropped.
00:22:26And to this day, like, I still don't understand what happened.
00:22:30You know, I, I got the news right after I got the phone to Mitch.
00:22:35Wait, so you're saying that they dropped you after you told Mitch?
00:22:39Yeah, and I wanted him to be proud of me, you know?
00:22:41I was going to show him that I was going to make my place in the industry, you know?
00:22:46And I even organised a meeting with the director.
00:22:49Yeah, and what did he say?
00:22:50Not much.
00:22:51You know, he didn't give me anything.
00:22:54And I said, look, I will re-audition.
00:22:56And he saw me on the phone to Mitch and he just walked away and said,
00:23:00why don't you go do Mitch's projects instead of other people's?
00:23:03Okay, well, do you think that maybe Mitch had something to do with it?
00:23:09No!
00:23:10Mitch would never do that to me.
00:23:12He believes in me, Alex.
00:23:13He says I have great potential and I'm going to be a great actor one day.
00:23:16So, no.
00:23:17Okay, okay.
00:23:18Well, then why doesn't he put you in one of his projects?
00:23:20Because he says that, you know, the roles aren't right for me
00:23:24and I need to go and work on other people's projects so I don't get it.
00:23:27What do I do?
00:23:36Who is it?
00:23:37It's Mitch.
00:23:38See, I knew you wouldn't forget.
00:23:40Hey, baby.
00:23:41How are you?
00:23:43See, I knew you wouldn't forget my birthday.
00:23:45Oh, my special cake.
00:23:49Mitch, I thought you were ringing up to wish me happy birthday.
00:23:55No, I'm not...
00:23:58Mitch!
00:23:59No, I...
00:24:00I have kept this relationship for a secret for years.
00:24:04Okay?
00:24:05You have no right to ask me to do something like that.
00:24:10No!
00:24:11Mitch!
00:24:12No!
00:24:13Okay?
00:24:14End of discussion.
00:24:15I won't.
00:24:16Okay?
00:24:17I can't...
00:24:18Just leave it, okay?
00:24:20Just leave it.
00:24:21He doesn't deserve to be here, Claire.
00:24:23It's going to be okay, alright?
00:24:25Don't let him ruin your birthday.
00:24:27I just don't get it.
00:24:29Alex, he...
00:24:31We were...
00:24:32We were in love.
00:24:33And he's changed so much.
00:24:36You know, I even said that I'd leave the industry for him.
00:24:39I'd give up my dream.
00:24:40And I thought that one day he might marry me.
00:24:43I just don't get it.
00:24:46And you know what?
00:24:49I know what I'm having.
00:24:54Alex, I'm going to have a little baby girl.
00:25:01Why can't he just want a baby?
00:25:07Claire, I...
00:25:11You are going to be the most amazing mother, okay?
00:25:17The mother of a beautiful little girl.
00:25:27Do you know what, Alex?
00:25:31I've got a name for her.
00:25:33What is it?
00:25:35I'm going to call her Clara.
00:25:37Do you like it?
00:25:39I love it.
00:25:50Alex.
00:25:51Yeah?
00:25:52How's the screenplay coming along?
00:25:55Yeah, not great.
00:25:58Dude, I'm stuck right now.
00:26:00I really thought that this was going to be the one,
00:26:02but it's just rejection after rejection after rejection.
00:26:08Did you hear back from Liberty Studios?
00:26:10Dude, the screenplay you sent me was a banger.
00:26:12Yeah, well, according to them, it's pretentious,
00:26:15controversial, and not sexy enough.
00:26:19Right.
00:26:20Well, I hope your luck turns around soon.
00:26:23It's a tough industry.
00:26:27So, have you been on any of Mitch's sets recently?
00:26:31Oh, yeah.
00:26:32No, he's shooting one down at the studio at the moment.
00:26:34Cast Roxanne Amber as the leading lead.
00:26:36You're kidding.
00:26:37No, not at all.
00:26:39Rumour has it that Mitch and her are secretly dating
00:26:42the last couple of months.
00:26:44What do you mean?
00:26:46I mean they've been dating while on the set
00:26:48for the last couple of months.
00:26:50And they're saying that he's going to propose soon.
00:26:54No, there's no way.
00:26:56That would affect the shoot, sure.
00:26:58You think Mitch cares?
00:27:00It's Mitch.
00:27:01Oh, my God.
00:27:02That guy is such a leech.
00:27:04Hey, I wouldn't worry about it too much.
00:27:07Mitch goes through women like he goes through cigars.
00:27:10Right?
00:27:11They won't last long.
00:27:14OK.
00:27:17All right.
00:27:18Well, um, I guess I'll be going then.
00:27:22The missus and my dog are probably waiting for me
00:27:25back at home, so...
00:27:27Except you're not married, so...
00:27:30Well, I am in my mind.
00:27:32But that's adorable.
00:27:34Hey, is there anyone you think of that way?
00:27:38There's a certain someone on my mind from time to time.
00:27:45Well, good luck, buddy.
00:27:52I really wasn't in the mood for this today, Mitch.
00:27:55I really just want to stay in bed.
00:27:57Look, I know, but...
00:27:59you need some sun and some fresh air, OK?
00:28:02It'll be good for the baby.
00:28:04You can't just stay cooped up inside all day.
00:28:07You want her to be healthy, right?
00:28:09No.
00:28:10Exactly.
00:28:11You're always right.
00:28:12Yeah.
00:28:13And, look, now that you're here,
00:28:15why don't you look around?
00:28:17Pick out some books.
00:28:18Reading is very relaxing.
00:28:20It'll be good for you.
00:28:23Yeah, you're right.
00:28:25All right.
00:28:26Did you want anything?
00:28:28Do you want me to recommend you something good?
00:28:30Um, I think I was feeling Oscar Wilde today.
00:28:34Spectacular.
00:28:36Excellent choice.
00:28:37The Importance of Being Earnest will be your next read,
00:28:41and I'm buying it for you.
00:28:44Sorry.
00:28:47Oh.
00:28:52Claire, wait.
00:28:54So...
00:28:56I'm pregnant with his child.
00:29:00And here's the audacity.
00:29:04Claire, just...
00:29:06Just, all right, just let it go,
00:29:08and we'll look at some books,
00:29:10and we'll go to the bakery afterwards.
00:29:12You know about this?
00:29:13Were you hiding this from me, Alex?
00:29:15Is that why you took me here today?
00:29:17Claire, look, just...
00:29:19Just let them be, all right?
00:29:21Just focus on yourself, please.
00:29:23You know what? I trusted you.
00:29:25Claire, Claire, just let him go.
00:29:27Just wait.
00:29:28Claire, wait!
00:29:32Mitch! Mitch!
00:29:34I need to speak to you right now.
00:29:36Firstly, don't come in here screaming at me.
00:29:37Secondly, I said don't come back as long as you're going to keep that baby.
00:29:40Then what is this, huh?
00:29:41Tell me that this is a lie.
00:29:43Oh, for fuck's sake, Claire.
00:29:45You know what the press are like.
00:29:46They don't care if something's true,
00:29:47and they won't fucking print anything as long as they need to read it.
00:29:50I swear, if that's true,
00:29:51I will go to the press and I will tell them everything.
00:29:54Watch.
00:29:56Hey.
00:29:59Now, listen, sweetheart.
00:30:01You know that I wouldn't do that, right?
00:30:04Yeah, so why did you give me the cold shoulder then?
00:30:07Why did you not want our own baby, Mitch?
00:30:10Is it because of her?
00:30:12Or is it this public relationship talk?
00:30:15It's all fucking bullshit, isn't it?
00:30:17I don't even know her that well.
00:30:19She's the lead actress in my new movie.
00:30:21That is it.
00:30:22Claire, you are the woman I want to marry.
00:30:25You are the one I love.
00:30:29Do you actually mean that, though?
00:30:32Of course.
00:30:35And I'm sorry that it's taken me so long to realize it,
00:30:37but I know what I want now.
00:30:43Right?
00:30:46Sweetheart, listen.
00:30:48Sweetheart, listen.
00:30:51What you read is all lies.
00:30:54I swear.
00:30:57And why did you push me away?
00:30:59Mitch, you just cut me off.
00:31:01You just, you just left.
00:31:03I'm sorry for what I said and I'm sorry for what I did.
00:31:08I guess I just wasn't ready to accept things at that stage.
00:31:11I was very stressed with work.
00:31:19Now, you know that I've been really busy with my movie, yeah?
00:31:23That's all it is.
00:31:25I had issues with locations and budgets and cast and...
00:31:31It's not an excuse, but what's this about going to the press, hey?
00:31:35I mean, come on.
00:31:37You're just stooping to their level.
00:31:39And if I know one thing, it's that you're better than that.
00:31:43I just, Mitch, I just, I couldn't stomach the thought
00:31:46of you going out with another woman,
00:31:49you marrying another woman,
00:31:51and then I'm pregnant with our baby girl.
00:31:54I just couldn't.
00:31:56Of course.
00:31:58Look, how about I make up for lost time, yeah?
00:32:02I want us to be a family, Claire.
00:32:06Do you actually mean that, Mitch?
00:32:08You want this?
00:32:09More than anything.
00:32:11I've missed you so much these past few months,
00:32:14and I'm so sorry for everything.
00:32:22I missed you too.
00:32:25I really thought I'd lost you, though.
00:32:28Never.
00:32:30You could never lose me.
00:32:32Not even if you tried.
00:32:34Now, why don't I take you out on Friday night and make up for it,
00:32:38or at least start to make up for it.
00:32:40Somewhere special, yeah?
00:32:42Where are we going?
00:32:43Oh, that's a surprise.
00:32:45It'll be just the two of us.
00:32:47Like the good old days.
00:32:50Yeah, I was so angry at Alex, you know?
00:32:53Like, I marched into his house and I confronted him.
00:32:56Do you know what even threatened him?
00:32:59Really?
00:33:00Yeah.
00:33:01I told him that I would tell the tabloid about everything.
00:33:03You said that to him? You said that to Mitch?
00:33:05Yeah.
00:33:06I don't know what came over me.
00:33:07Like, I was so mad.
00:33:09I even got in the magazine.
00:33:11And I hit him!
00:33:13Don't do that.
00:33:15And then the next minute, he was, you know, telling me that he loved me,
00:33:19and he was holding my hand,
00:33:21and he said he wants to be a family,
00:33:23and it was beautiful.
00:33:25Alex, I think he may propose tonight.
00:33:28OK.
00:33:30Claire, I don't think that he meant that apology, all right?
00:33:33Please just listen to me.
00:33:35I have been talking about him and Roxanne for a long time now,
00:33:38and I think that he wants to marry her.
00:33:41I'm sorry.
00:33:42No, I don't think that.
00:33:44Why would you say something like that to me?
00:33:47Like, Alex, why can't you be happy for me?
00:33:50Like, if Mitch said it's a lie, it's a lie.
00:33:53OK?
00:33:54So if you can't be happy for me, then you should leave.
00:33:59Claire, please listen, OK?
00:34:02I don't think that you're going to be safe with him.
00:34:04That's a surprise.
00:34:06Claire, just please listen, all right?
00:34:08You know that I want what's best for you.
00:34:10I don't want to hear it, Alex.
00:34:12Come on, please.
00:34:13I'm begging you, don't go.
00:34:18I'm sorry.
00:34:24You look absolutely beautiful.
00:34:27You know that?
00:34:30I've missed you, baby.
00:34:32I've missed you too.
00:34:33You know, I've been thinking a lot about our life together,
00:34:36about the future.
00:34:37I've got lots of plans.
00:34:39Really?
00:34:40Yeah.
00:34:44And also, I'm going to have my team make a statement,
00:34:48a press release about it.
00:34:50So you don't have to tell anyone else, all right, silly girl?
00:34:53That was so angry.
00:34:56I liked it.
00:34:57You're a little bit scary, a bit feisty.
00:34:59Maybe I can see that side tonight when we get home, huh?
00:35:04Really?
00:35:05Mm-hmm.
00:35:06You want me to come home?
00:35:07The house has been so empty without you.
00:35:10After tonight, I'm going to make sure you don't go anywhere else.
00:35:15I love you, baby.
00:35:17You ready to be surprised?
00:35:18Super.
00:35:19Let's go.
00:35:20We're waiting for.
00:35:21Yeah.
00:35:25Well?
00:35:26Wow, this place is, you know, it's big.
00:35:31What do you do here?
00:35:33This is one of my old movie sets.
00:35:36But now I just come here to watch.
00:35:38What do you watch?
00:35:40I watch movies.
00:35:42It's a private cinema.
00:35:44It's a top secret one just for us.
00:35:47No one else will be disturbing us.
00:35:49I mean, that's nice, Mitch,
00:35:51but, you know, I thought we were going to go to dinner.
00:35:53Yeah.
00:35:54And...
00:35:55We will go for dinner afterwards, hungry girl.
00:35:59I know, but it's just...
00:36:02What's wrong?
00:36:04No one's around and, you know...
00:36:06Yeah, I don't want anyone else here.
00:36:09I want you all to myself.
00:36:11Yeah, but it's just...
00:36:13I don't want anyone else to join us.
00:36:15Mitch, why did you bring me here?
00:36:17I thought dinner and this is just, it's weird.
00:36:23Well, I'm sorry, what are you, five?
00:36:26I mean, who wouldn't want to be on a date here
00:36:28at a private cinema with me in a three-piece suit?
00:36:30Come on.
00:36:32Hey.
00:36:33Hey.
00:36:34Be a big girl for once, huh?
00:36:36Want to pick a movie?
00:36:37What, you want to make one?
00:36:38A movie would be nice.
00:36:41Oh, I've missed your soft skin, huh?
00:36:46Mitch.
00:36:47Mitch.
00:36:49Come on.
00:36:50Come on, Mitch.
00:36:51Don't act like...
00:36:52Don't act like you've done it before, huh?
00:36:53It's not over.
00:36:54Mitch.
00:36:55Mitch, I'm pregnant.
00:36:57Come on.
00:36:58Mitch, I'm serious.
00:37:04God damn it!
00:37:06Hey, Alex, hey.
00:37:09Calm down, what's going on, hey?
00:37:12I don't know, man, I just have a really bad feeling
00:37:14about something, okay?
00:37:16Claire and Mitch, that bastard,
00:37:19he pretended to apologise to her
00:37:21and now he's taping her somewhere tonight.
00:37:23Who, Mitch?
00:37:24Is this the pregnant actress you were talking to me about?
00:37:27She said that they reconciled
00:37:29and that he said that he loved her and that, you know...
00:37:32God, that he was going to take the baby
00:37:34and that he was going to take care of them both
00:37:36and get married.
00:37:37She's too innocent.
00:37:39She doesn't understand these things.
00:37:41Wait, Mitch apologised?
00:37:43Mitch apologised?
00:37:45He's never apologised to anyone in his life.
00:37:48Look, he...
00:37:50She threatened him, all right?
00:37:52She threatened to take the pregnancy to the press, okay?
00:37:55And...
00:37:56Oh, God, man, she...
00:37:59Claire threatened him?
00:38:02She threatened Mitch.
00:38:04Nobody threatens Mitch.
00:38:06She's amazing, man, I'm telling you.
00:38:08I mean, her laugh, her smile, she's...
00:38:11God, she's so beautiful.
00:38:13How does that moron not see it?
00:38:15Sounds like you've fallen pretty hard, my friend.
00:38:18Look, I don't care about that right now, okay?
00:38:20I just...
00:38:21All I care about is that she is safe
00:38:23and as far away from that bastard as possible.
00:38:26God, where is he taking her?
00:38:29Look, I did overhear Mitch saying
00:38:32that he was going to take some girl to the studio.
00:38:35What, the abandoned building?
00:38:37Yeah, well, it used to be a movie set,
00:38:39then it was a studio.
00:38:41Some people say it's cursed, but Mitch still has the title.
00:38:43I... I need to get there quickly.
00:38:46Hey, hey, don't you think you're being a little paranoid?
00:38:48I need to make sure, okay?
00:38:50Okay.
00:38:51Okay, maybe just observe for a distance, all right?
00:38:54So you don't get yourself hurt.
00:38:56Yeah, yeah, I'll do that.
00:38:58Thanks, man.
00:39:10Claire?
00:39:14Claire! Claire!
00:39:18Claire!
00:39:28Smile, sweetheart.
00:39:30You know, you wanted it as well.
00:39:32I needed that.
00:39:34You didn't have to be so rough.
00:39:36You know, I'm pregnant and...
00:39:39Oh, baby, baby, baby.
00:39:42No one forced you to come here.
00:39:45Don't act so innocent.
00:39:47I probably planned that little fucking brat as well
00:39:49just to try and trap me.
00:39:50What?
00:39:52Mitch, I thought you...
00:39:54I thought you were happy.
00:39:56Oh, did you?
00:39:58You think I'd sabotage my entire career
00:40:00for you and this fucking baby?
00:40:03You're more stupid than I thought.
00:40:06I thought that we...
00:40:07I thought that I thought...
00:40:09I thought we reconciled.
00:40:11Did you, yeah?
00:40:13Come on.
00:40:14Okay, okay.
00:40:16You think that I ever loved you?
00:40:18You're nothing to me, you hear me?
00:40:20You're worthless.
00:40:21You're shit on my shoe.
00:40:23Huh?
00:40:24I've got something for you.
00:40:25I've got something for you.
00:40:27What are you doing?
00:40:29Ha, ha, ha.
00:40:30I'm the biggest producer in this country, you hear?
00:40:33Any girl would want to be with me.
00:40:35Well, breathe in here, baby.
00:40:36Breathe in breaths.
00:40:37Breathe in breaths.
00:40:40Just breathe, yeah?
00:40:42Huh?
00:40:43That's it.
00:40:45That's it.
00:40:46Sleep tight.
00:41:15Water.
00:41:25Water.
00:41:40What time is it?
00:41:44How did I get here?
00:41:47Claire.
00:41:48Claire, is she okay?
00:41:49Is Claire here?
00:41:50Sir, please calm down.
00:41:52We'll tell you in a minute.
00:41:53You need to rest.
00:41:54I need to see Claire.
00:41:55Is she okay?
00:41:56Is she here?
00:41:57Is she okay?
00:41:58Your injuries are extremely serious.
00:41:59How did I get here?
00:42:00Somebody alerted the cops that there was smoke coming from the abandoned studio.
00:42:04You and the woman were rescued.
00:42:09Claire's okay.
00:42:11She's...
00:42:13Is she all right?
00:42:14Is she hurt?
00:42:16Sir, I am deeply sorry to say that the woman didn't make it.
00:42:23No, she...
00:42:25It's not true.
00:42:26I don't believe you.
00:42:27Where is she?
00:42:28I need to see her, please.
00:42:29I need to see her!
00:42:31Please.
00:42:32She can't be gone.
00:42:33I need to see Claire.
00:42:34She can't be gone.
00:42:35She can't be...
00:42:36Sir, we're sorry to inform you, but she wasn't able to survive the burns.
00:42:39She couldn't be saved.
00:42:41She was in the fire for too long.
00:42:42Her body is disfigured beyond recognition.
00:42:47But we were able to save the baby.
00:42:50The baby, Claire...
00:42:51Claire, she's alive.
00:42:52The baby is still premature and is in the incubation room.
00:42:55But she is breathing.
00:42:56And she is alive.
00:43:01She's alive.
00:43:07Can I see her?
00:43:08Can I see the baby?
00:43:09Sir, we will bring her here where she can breathe on her own.
00:43:12You need to rest for now.
00:43:22Claire.
00:43:23Nice to meet you.
00:43:24Claire.
00:43:25Happy birthday, Claire.
00:43:26Stop.
00:43:27Don't do that.
00:43:28Claire.
00:43:29Please.
00:43:30Please, I'm begging you.
00:43:31Don't go.
00:43:32I think we'd be really good friends.
00:43:34Claire.
00:43:44Are you Alex?
00:43:46Yes.
00:43:49You must be Claire's mum.
00:43:53Sir, nice to meet you.
00:43:57I'm sorry it's under these circumstances.
00:44:01I spoke so highly of you.
00:44:05What happened to my daughter?
00:44:07How did this happen?
00:44:11It was an accident.
00:44:15I couldn't save her.
00:44:16I'm so sorry.
00:44:18They told me she was pregnant and the baby survived.
00:44:22I didn't know what was going on in Claire's life.
00:44:25She wouldn't tell me anything.
00:44:27Where's the father and where is he?
00:44:31I don't know.
00:44:33When I met Claire, she was already pregnant.
00:44:36She never talked about him.
00:44:38I never asked.
00:44:40How did she keep such a big secret from me?
00:44:43My poor Claire.
00:44:45Father's nowhere to be seen.
00:44:48I'm afraid he's nowhere to be seen, even when she was alive.
00:44:53I don't think he's going to be turning up any time soon.
00:44:56I'm terrible.
00:44:59My poor daughter and her poor child.
00:45:05Oh, she's beautiful.
00:45:10She looks just like my daughter when she was a baby.
00:45:16How precious.
00:45:18Oh, if only her mother were here.
00:45:22I wanted to name her Clara.
00:45:27Baby Clara, you're coming with me now.
00:45:35Hey, you're going to be okay.
00:45:40What kills me that she'll grow up an orphan.
00:45:44Oh, I hope her father changes his mind and shows up.
00:45:48Now that Claire's gone, he's needed more than ever.
00:46:00If he changes his mind and shows up, please let me know.
00:46:07I'll come and visit the two of you from time to time.
00:46:10If that's all right, I'll check and make sure that everything's okay.
00:46:15If Clara needs anything, for Claire's sake.
00:46:21Thank you. You're too kind.
00:46:25I'm so glad Claire had someone like you in her life.
00:46:45All right, time to celebrate.
00:46:55Happy birthday, Clara.
00:46:58I've been so looking forward to today.
00:47:00Well, it's a very important birthday for you.
00:47:02Please blow out the candles.
00:47:07How's it important?
00:47:09Well, first of all, you have had such an amazing year.
00:47:12I mean, the roles that you have landed and everything that you have accomplished.
00:47:16And at such a young age, I'm so, so proud of you.
00:47:20Girl, you haven't been too bad yourself.
00:47:23You're practically the most sought after swimming ride I ever wanted to ride in my life.
00:47:27How does it feel to have so much money?
00:47:29Oh, come on. I mean, you're the one who's so successful and knows what it means to be talented, right?
00:47:35I'm just a humble guy until just recently.
00:47:38Well, I couldn't have done any of this without you.
00:47:41No, no, you're the one with the talent.
00:47:43And you have such a good head on your shoulders.
00:47:46I mean, most actors don't, especially at a young age.
00:47:50So many of them get into this unpleasant sodomitis.
00:47:55I've heard about that. Thankfully, I've gotten this far unscathed.
00:48:00Clara, I think it's time that you knew something.
00:48:04Do what?
00:48:06I think that it's time that you knew the truth about your parents.
00:48:13My parents? What about my parents? Has my father come around?
00:48:16No, no. The passing of your mother and the absence of your father occurred under very complex circumstances.
00:48:29I think I've asked Anna like a billion and two times about what happened.
00:48:33She always gives me the same exact story.
00:48:35My mum was an actress. She lived away to find more gigs.
00:48:39And there was just less and less communication until, bam, I shot it one day.
00:48:44Dead. Serious. And I was just left with no dad.
00:48:50Well, just get ready because it is a lot to take in.
00:48:55Okay, so I met your mother 20 years ago.
00:48:59She had just found out that she was pregnant with you.
00:49:03Did you guys work together?
00:49:05No, no, no, no. I mean, I was a nobody back then. We both were.
00:49:09We had a lot in common and she was very distressed and lonely at the time.
00:49:16She just happened to meet me at a very dark time in her life.
00:49:20What about my father?
00:49:22Your father is a famous and powerful producer.
00:49:26He's a producer? Does he know that his daughter is an actress?
00:49:30I believe he thinks his child died with Claire.
00:49:34So, can you tell him that I'm alive and well?
00:49:38No, I can't. Not like this, at least.
00:49:41Look, your father did not want Claire to have you.
00:49:45He insisted that she had an abortion.
00:49:48Oh. So, they didn't want me.
00:49:53No, no, no, no. Your mother wanted you more than anything.
00:49:57Your mother wanted you more than anything.
00:50:00She was ready to stand against the whole world to have you.
00:50:03She chose you over your father.
00:50:05A man that she depended on for almost everything.
00:50:10But why did she have to die?
00:50:13I'll get to that. Just let me finish.
00:50:20But how did she die?
00:50:22I'll get to that. Just let me finish.
00:50:24Okay, I'm sorry.
00:50:26So, your father had flings with a lot of actresses.
00:50:31He was never committed to any of them.
00:50:33Your mother trusted him blindly.
00:50:36She thought that he was committed to her.
00:50:39The only thing your father was committed to was his career, his public image.
00:50:44I see.
00:50:45So, he tried to convince your mother to get rid of the baby.
00:50:49He told her that he wasn't going to have it.
00:50:52He didn't want the press to find out about it.
00:50:54So, he couldn't have a baby unless he was married.
00:50:56And he didn't want to marry your mother either.
00:50:58And why not?
00:51:00Because he wanted to marry a more successful actress instead.
00:51:04For his public image.
00:51:06Who is she? Do I know her?
00:51:08We'll get to that.
00:51:10So, he kept phoning your mother.
00:51:12He kept trying to get her to get an abortion.
00:51:15And as much as the idea of you growing up without a father and with little money hurt your mother,
00:51:20she was convinced to try and change your father's mind.
00:51:23She was determined to have you.
00:51:27So, one day I took her to this old vintage bookstore.
00:51:32And she saw pictures of your father and another actress on a tabloid sprawled over the front page.
00:51:39It said that they were allegedly in a relationship and that they were planning on getting married.
00:51:44Oh my God.
00:51:46Your mother, she was one of the most kindest and nicest people that I'd ever met.
00:51:53But I had never seen her so furious.
00:51:55She was so angry that she went to your father and threatened him to leak it to the press.
00:52:02What did he have to say for himself?
00:52:04He got scared and he started lying, convincing her that the press was making it all up
00:52:09and that he'd changed his mind about the baby.
00:52:11Saying that he was going to take care of the both of you.
00:52:16I warned your mother.
00:52:18I tried my best.
00:52:19Saying that he could not be trusted, but your mother was so happy.
00:52:24She didn't listen to my warnings.
00:52:28The next thing I knew, your father had taken her to a studio and strangled her in a car.
00:52:36I was with a friend at the time and I was ranting on about how Clay was going out with Mitch
00:52:41and I knew something was going to happen.
00:52:45And then he told me that Mitch was taking a woman to an abandoned studio.
00:52:49I rushed there. I rushed there as quickly as I could, but I was too late.
00:52:56What happened next? How did we even get out of there?
00:52:59I got to the studio and I saw Mitch, a towel around your mother's mouth.
00:53:04I tried to rescue her. I ran there as fast as I could, but his men were still there
00:53:08and they beat me until I passed out.
00:53:12Alex, how did we get out of there alive?
00:53:16People heard screaming.
00:53:18They called the cops and that's how you and I got to the hospital.
00:53:23You were alright.
00:53:25Your mother wasn't so lucky.
00:53:31I just can't believe my father did something like that.
00:53:36Alex, who is this monster?
00:53:40Once we were at the hospital, I called your grandmother and we made arrangements
00:53:44about who was going to be raised.
00:53:47She asked me what happened, but I couldn't tell her.
00:53:52I gave her enough to give her closure.
00:53:54No, Alex, you did the right thing.
00:53:58Nana could not have known about any of this if we had been too much further back.
00:54:03And I had a great childhood.
00:54:06And we had you.
00:54:08So, thank you for being a great sunshine.
00:54:14Please, who is my father?
00:54:25The producer, Mitch, Mitch Sterling, is your father.
00:54:34What?
00:54:37Yuck.
00:54:39Yuck, he is such a creep.
00:54:42You know, he was a creep back then too.
00:54:44A heartless one.
00:54:46You know, he's got a wife and kids and I know for a fact that he gets around.
00:54:50He gets with barely legal starlets.
00:54:54Poor Roxanne.
00:54:56That's the one.
00:54:59You know, he's been begging me to be in his new project and I keep turning him down
00:55:04because something about him makes me so uncomfortable.
00:55:08You're a lot wiser than your mother was, girl.
00:55:12She was just too innocent for this industry.
00:55:16I guess that's how a guy like Mitch was able to dig his claws into her.
00:55:20But doesn't he suspect for a second that I could be his daughter that survived?
00:55:25Well, I don't think Mitch has been with too many women at this point
00:55:28and I think he's just forgotten about Clem.
00:55:32What a pig.
00:55:35I can't believe he's gotten away with this for this long.
00:55:39He has a lot of influence and creating a scandal around your birth and everything,
00:55:45it would have ruined your childhood and I couldn't do that to you.
00:55:51So, I kept everything a secret.
00:55:56It's not right, Alex. None of this is right.
00:56:01There must be some way that we can get back at him for all that he's done.
00:56:07We need a plan.
00:56:13Let's give him that scandal that he's been running from for the past 20 years.
00:56:19I'll confront him. In public.
00:56:22I'll make a whole scene and I don't think it will affect my career that much
00:56:26but hopefully his will be ruined.
00:56:29Well, I have been thinking about revenge for the last 20 years
00:56:39and I have the perfect plan.
00:56:43I've been writing this screenplay and I've been writing it for years.
00:56:48Go on.
00:56:49When your mother passed, I knew that I wanted to tell this story
00:56:53so I started writing a screenplay about it.
00:56:56So, you're going to make a movie?
00:56:58Yes, a movie that accurately portrays what happened
00:57:01and if Mitch sees it, he will be riddled with guilt.
00:57:07Is he going to go for it?
00:57:10Alright.
00:57:11Plan is, I want to cast you as your mother.
00:57:16Alright?
00:57:17I mean, you guys are so alike and I think it would be the perfect touch to get on his nerves.
00:57:22The plan is, we torture him psychologically, you know, until he goes insane.
00:57:27Plan is to then change the names except for the main two ones, Claire and Mitch.
00:57:33I think that could actually work.
00:57:35I'm in.
00:57:38Okay, well, you need to be sure about this, right?
00:57:42You need to make sure that you are ready because we've got a lot of work to do
00:57:45so we've got to get started now.
00:57:47I'm ready to get started.
00:57:48Okay.
00:57:49We are going to ruin him.
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:53I just need you to calm down and make sure that you are prepared for it, okay?
00:57:58You need to make sure that you are ready for this project
00:58:01because if not, if this goes south, there could be consequences.
00:58:06I know, and I promise I will carefully consider it.
00:58:12These are some of your mother's things.
00:58:15I saved them for you after she passed.
00:58:20And this is her diary that she kept when she was in a relationship with Mitch.
00:58:27I want you to have it.
00:58:29It will help you prepare for the role.
00:58:32Well, congratulations.
00:58:35Our movie was a box office hit.
00:58:37And guess what?
00:58:38That's not even the best part.
00:58:40Ah, I see you're still thinking about Mitch's reaction at the box screening.
00:58:44I mean, how could I not?
00:58:45Did you see his face?
00:58:47God, he must be going insane.
00:58:49I mean, the movie is everywhere.
00:58:51Right?
00:58:52Oh, I still can't stand it.
00:58:55God, he must be going insane.
00:58:56I mean, the movie is everywhere.
00:58:58Right?
00:58:59Oh, I still can't stand it.
00:59:01What my mum saw in Mitch.
00:59:03He is so arrogant.
00:59:05You know, he was begging me to be in his new production
00:59:08and still found time to brag about himself.
00:59:10Well, you know, people make mistakes when they're as sincere as your mother,
00:59:15and I mean, come on, that's just classic Mitch, right?
00:59:18I mean, he's literally cheating on the woman that he ended up marrying.
00:59:21God, I mean, he's just such a worthless, pathetic worm.
00:59:26I just, I can't even stand running into him at events.
00:59:30It makes me want to vomit thinking about what he did to my mother.
00:59:33I can't believe that man is my biological father.
00:59:36Look, he is not your father, alright?
00:59:38A parent is someone who watches over you as you grow up,
00:59:42and he never even tried, okay?
00:59:44You know, I often wonder, like, even if he hated your mother so much
00:59:49that he ended up murdering her,
00:59:51I mean, how could he be so heartless about his own child?
00:59:54You've been more of a father to me than Mitch ever could be.
00:59:58You were the one that looked over me while I was growing up an orphan.
01:00:02You know, I just did the right thing, you know?
01:00:05I mean, I feel so terrible about how you were treated
01:00:10and what happened to you.
01:00:12For you, I want the life that your mother dreamed of, alright?
01:00:16And...
01:00:17I...
01:00:18She was...
01:00:19She was fragile, but, God, I'm just in awe of her strength.
01:00:26I wish that it was you instead of Mitch that my mum fell in love with.
01:00:31I wish that I were your daughter.
01:00:33Hey, you are like a daughter to me, and don't you forget it.
01:00:37I...
01:00:38I mean, I wish you and mum had been.
01:00:41I can't help but think how different all three of our lives would be
01:00:44if that were the case, especially mum's.
01:00:51If she was still here, I definitely would have said it to everyone.
01:00:55Come on.
01:00:57Wait.
01:00:58What?
01:00:59You liked my mum.
01:01:01You, like, like-liked her.
01:01:03OK, no, she was a dear friend.
01:01:06I mean, we had a lot in common
01:01:08and we were both struggling with our careers at the time.
01:01:11Well, come on.
01:01:13If things had worked out differently,
01:01:15you reckon you guys would have eventually gotten together?
01:01:18Clara, I met your mother
01:01:21when she suspected that she was pregnant with you, alright?
01:01:25She was in a toxic, abusive relationship with Mitch
01:01:28and that took a toll on her, alright?
01:01:31I mean, she was so lonely that she confided in a stranger.
01:01:36I mean, today, here, that stranger is seeking her justice.
01:01:40If you ask me, I think that's very romantic.
01:01:42Yeah, well, Mitch needs to be brought to justice, alright?
01:01:47And we are going to do that.
01:01:49He's going to pay for everything he did.
01:01:51I mean, God knows what else he's done that we don't know about.
01:01:55Well, anyone who's seen the movie and knows Mitch in real life,
01:01:59surely they've made some connections by now.
01:02:01They've got to be growing suspicious.
01:02:03Yeah, well, we're going to make sure that they do.
01:02:05Our goal is to make it so that he breaks down
01:02:08and then just confesses to everything.
01:02:11I'm going to destroy his beloved career,
01:02:15the career for which he destroyed so many lives
01:02:18and broke so many hearts.
01:02:20And, you know, I've been torturing Mitch in a very special way.
01:02:30And, you know, I've been torturing Mitch in a very special way.
01:02:37I've been sending him pictures of your mother from different addresses,
01:02:40you know, just messing with his head.
01:02:42I just hope Mitch doesn't sue us.
01:02:45No, he can't, alright?
01:02:46I've thought about that before we made the movie.
01:02:48If he tries anything, then I'll just make sure that you and him
01:02:51take a DNA test and it'll just further prove what I'm accusing him of.
01:02:55It's surely only a matter of time before he confronts us.
01:02:58Well, I have a plan for when that eventually happens.
01:03:02I'm just waiting for his last nerve to crack.
01:03:05You know, I've been holding back the urge to beat the shit out of him
01:03:09for the last 20 years.
01:03:11But he's influential, so we have to be clever about how we do this.
01:03:16I've been enjoying what we're doing, the movie and my role,
01:03:22and it just is really, really hard to think about my mother this much.
01:03:27Well, you know, critics have been praising the way you played your part, alright?
01:03:34I mean, you've been nominated for, like, what, so many awards,
01:03:41and I had a feeling that you were going to win both.
01:03:45Well, don't sell yourself short.
01:03:47You came from, what, penniless screenwriter and now you're one of the greats?
01:03:51You didn't give yourself enough credit.
01:03:53You know that your mother was a struggling actress.
01:03:55She barely got any work, even though she was so stunning.
01:04:00It just makes me so proud to see you just take over this industry.
01:04:06Well, I have been very lucky in these roles, and your influence doesn't hurt.
01:04:11Come on, no, you have been making waves without me.
01:04:14That takes sheer talent.
01:04:17Your mother wasn't so fortunate.
01:04:19She couldn't escape the destruction that Mitch unleashed upon her.
01:04:26You know, I was so sure back then, and I still am to this day,
01:04:31that he was sabotaging your mother's career,
01:04:34just making sure that she was financially and emotionally dependent on her
01:04:38so that she just couldn't escape.
01:04:43I mean, the more you tell me about Mitch, the more afraid I'm getting of him.
01:04:49If he found out who I really was, he would surely kill me.
01:04:52Look what he did to my mother.
01:04:54No, you are safe. He can't do shit to you, all right?
01:04:58Your name is just too big at this point.
01:05:01Yeah, but Alex, he's losing his mind.
01:05:03I've been hearing it from people.
01:05:05I even saw him at an event, and he just seemed visibly shaken.
01:05:08Yeah, well, he's going to confront us soon, I'm sure of it.
01:05:19PHONE VIBRATES
01:05:21What is it?
01:05:24Oh, bingo. It's an email from his assistant.
01:05:28Oh, my God.
01:05:30They're praising us for the movie.
01:05:33They're saying that they're very proud of what we did
01:05:37and that Mitch has been trying to get his hands on me for quite some time.
01:05:41They threw in a lot of comments about you too.
01:05:44Comments?
01:05:46Saying that he's always wanted to get you in one of his films
01:05:50and he's quite jealous of the fact that I got you.
01:05:53Well, I will never work with Mitch, ever.
01:05:56Not over my dead body.
01:05:58Look at this.
01:06:00He just invited me to an abandoned building to discuss a new project.
01:06:04An abandoned building? Oh, wow!
01:06:06That doesn't seem suspicious.
01:06:08Yes, well, I think Mitch and I both know each other's intentions at this point, so...
01:06:14It's definitely a trap.
01:06:16What are you going to do? Are you going to go?
01:06:18What? I'm going to confront him.
01:06:20I'm going to give him a piece of my mind
01:06:22and you are going to come with me because I have a plan.
01:06:26OK, OK. What's the plan?
01:06:29I want you to dress like your late mother the day that she died.
01:06:33Use your costume from the movie and just prepare to act like a ghost.
01:06:38And what? And just scare him?
01:06:40I want you to give him the fright of his life, all right?
01:06:44While I destroy him with my words, you and her and that, we've got him.
01:06:48OK, and then what?
01:06:50Then we wait for him to break down.
01:06:53He confesses everything and we call the cops.
01:06:56What if he knows that I'm Clara and not my dead mother's ghost
01:07:01just right from the get-go?
01:07:03It doesn't matter, all right? The goal is to stir up his guilt.
01:07:06What if he tries to kill us?
01:07:09Hey, like I said, we'll call the cops.
01:07:12It's up to you, bro.
01:07:14OK.
01:07:16OK, I'm in.
01:07:19Let's do it.
01:07:29Mitch.
01:07:31Mitch.
01:07:41So you're the scumbag who's been fucking with me.
01:07:45I've been holding on to my rage for the past 20 years.
01:07:49I'm going to make you pay for everything that you did to Clara.
01:07:57But you've got no evidence.
01:08:00And I'm never going to admit what I did or didn't do.
01:08:06Do you have any remorse for what you did to her?
01:08:10You know, I'm sure that out of all of the actresses that you've slept with,
01:08:13none of them were as good or as decent or as loyal to you as Clara was.
01:08:20As good in bed, I'll give her that.
01:08:23She was just a bimbo who got what she deserved.
01:08:27And newsflash, mate, she's dead.
01:08:30Has been for a while, so I don't really see the point of all this, you know?
01:08:37Do you know that her baby survived?
01:08:40Bullshit.
01:08:42There's no way. It's not medically possible.
01:08:44Eyes dry.
01:08:46OK.
01:08:48Well, Clara, the starlet that you so desperately want in all of your projects,
01:08:55she's your daughter, Mitch.
01:09:01I mean, did it ever occur to you how much she looks like Clara?
01:09:06Were you ever able to figure that one out?
01:09:09What do you want from me?
01:09:12I want to torture you for what you did to her.
01:09:15I want to make you suffer as much as you made Clara suffer before you murdered her.
01:09:21You listen here, you fucking bastard.
01:09:25One phone call from me and you disappear forever, got that?
01:09:29Mitch?
01:09:32Is it really you?
01:09:38Why did you kill me, Mitch?
01:09:41I told you the baby and I wouldn't bother you.
01:09:46Why did you have to do what you did?
01:09:50You shut up. You're not real.
01:09:57I kept screaming your name but you had your hand wrapped around my throat.
01:10:05I don't understand how carrying your child was such a crime that you had to murder me.
01:10:10I said shut up! You shut up!
01:10:14You're not real.
01:10:16Clara is dead. I know that you're Clara.
01:10:20Mitch, I had so many dreams of you and me and a happy ending.
01:10:29I would have given up anything for you but not my child, not our child.
01:10:38No, you just probably, what, you fucked someone else, tried to pass the kid off as mine.
01:10:43God, you are such a heartless pig. Her life literally revolved around you.
01:10:48And you, weaseling your way in, trying to forget my sloppy seconds.
01:10:54You're pathetic, both of you.
01:11:02I never loved anyone but you, Mitch.
01:11:07And you killed me.
01:11:10Have you ever thought about me? Even once? After all these years?
01:11:19You're a hell of a good actress. I'll give you that.
01:11:23Is that what you want to hear?
01:11:26The way you kissed my cheek that night.
01:11:30And you held my hand. I thought all our troubles were really over.
01:11:38I had nothing, Mitch. No money. I cried myself to sleep every night.
01:11:49How do you know what happened between me and Clara?
01:11:53Answer me!
01:11:56And you whispered in my ear that everything was going to be okay.
01:12:02And you got that look in your eye.
01:12:08You pulled me by my hair, and you pushed me up against the wall!
01:12:13God, you fucking monster!
01:12:19I can take you and your career to places you couldn't otherwise have dreamt of.
01:12:23Leave her alone, alright? You see, you see, this, this is the kind of man that your father is.
01:12:28And you wondered how he managed to murder your mother.
01:12:32This ends now!
01:12:35Piece of shit.
01:12:37It's okay. It's going to be fine.
01:12:41They've got the Aunt Clara. Last chance, I'll kill him. You hear me?
01:12:49Fucking animal, alright? I'm going to make you pay for what you did!
01:12:54No. No, Alex, no. You're not going to do anything.
01:13:00Clara, this is not the time for forgiveness, alright? He needs to... I need to finish this.
01:13:07Alex, this is not your revenge to take.
01:13:11This man doesn't have a shred of guilt for killing me.
01:13:19He doesn't have any room in his heart for his child.
01:13:22Harry, you can drop the act, okay? He knows that you're not Claire's ghost.
01:13:25We need to finish him. I, I need to finish him.
01:13:30You know, Mitch, I loved you so much.
01:13:35You were my everything.
01:13:38I would have given up everything for you.
01:13:41But you just couldn't bear the thought of me raising our child on my own.
01:13:48You had to kill me and kill your unborn child.
01:13:51And what kind of evil man does it take to do that?
01:13:56You're a monster, Mitch.
01:14:01But you'd never rest in peace.
01:14:03You shut up! I know you're not Claire's ghost.
01:14:08If you are my daughter, it's because you've got half my blood.
01:14:11Your mother was a lazy, weak, pathetic bitch.
01:14:14Your mother was a lazy, weak, pathetic actress who kept sleeping with me for money.
01:14:20Now leave this fucking loser behind and let's take your career to the next level.
01:14:26What do you say?
01:14:27You shut up! You fucking shut up, you piece of shit liar!
01:14:30No, no, you, Claire, Claire, please, this, this is why we need to finish him.
01:14:35I need to end him now!
01:14:37Come on. Come on.
01:14:45Did I kill him?
01:14:48I swear I didn't even have my fingers on the trigger.
01:14:55Claire, where did you get this?
01:14:58It's the same one I gave your mother on her birthday, but...
01:15:02Because she was married with it, I...
01:15:06Here I thought it was one of a kind.
01:15:15Alex! Alex! Are you okay?
01:15:23Why are you looking at me like that?
01:15:26Did you give me that bracelet?
01:15:30What bracelet, Alex?
01:15:37No way.
01:15:40Is, is this...
01:15:42I think so.
01:15:45And...
01:15:47It's only fitting that you get it.
01:15:50I mean...
01:15:53It's, it's beautiful, but...
01:15:56How?
01:15:58I don't know, but...
01:16:01Come on.
01:16:04We should get out of here.
01:16:12Claire.
